Staples Canada and Allstate Protection Plans have announced the launch of Staples Trade-in by Allstate, a new program that allows Canadians to trade in unwanted electronics for Staples e-gift cards.
According to the press release, the program is designed for ease and flexibility, making it easy to get rid of old smartphones, laptops, and tablets. In order to use the program, customers have to answer a few questions online to receive the quote, which is accepted as a Staples e-gift card (redeemable in any Canadian Staples location). There are some eligibility requirements, and users can check to see if their device is eligible on the Staples website.
Customers then have to drop off the package at their nearest Staples location or ship it directly to Allstate using a prepaid shipping label.
“Tech trade-ins should be simple, fast and sustainable,” said Karl Wiley, CEO of Allstate Protection Plans. “Together with Staples Canada, we’re making it easier to cut waste and create real value from old devices. That’s a win-win for customers’ wallets and the planet.”
This isn’t the first partnership between the two organizations. It builds on the companies’ existing coverage plans, dubbed Staples Protection Plans by Allstate, which were introduced back in 2023.
With this program, Staples aims to support families and students by making it easy to save money and reduce e-waste with back-to-school season around the corner.
